I am pretty familiar with VNC on the M$ side of things...

I have a FreeBSD 4.4 box set up at work and can manage it via SSH.  Thought
I would install VNC and check that out and see how it worked on Unix...  was
able to get it installed and logged in without much trouble.  I was only at
the command line, though, since I hadn't set up an Xserver or XClient yet, I
figured I would so I could get a graphical window via VNC.

So I used /stand/sysinstall to try to set up my Xserver (had to use command
line mode since I couldn't get a graphical display) and then installed KDE.

I log in with VNC again, am at command line... run startx but I don't think
my Xserver is set up right.

Anyway, my question is, you CAN use VNC to view your Xdesktop if you have it
installed and running correctly, correct?
